I was chatting with my

neighbor yesterday and we were discussing how long we had lived next to each other. Ashley was 8 when we moved to Texas from Indiana. Tomorrow she will be 38, I’ve lived in our house for 30 years. Unfortunately Troy wasn’t afforded the same opportunity. I’m going to work real hard this year at getting myself in a position to move to the Hill country. That’s where I want to be. I’m praying that I get there. So much has changed in those 30 years, some good, some bad. Troy wouldn’t recognize it now. I wish he were here but he’s not and I can’t change that. I have 38 years of memories with him and I’ll never run out. Yesterday another student from Shenandoah passed away. We were never friends at school but became friends on facebook. I was really impressed with all the baking she did and I knew she had some health problems. Her daughter passed from cancer a few years ago, and she started an organization that made cozy chemo comforters in memory of her. She will be missed especially by her family. RIP Dianne, godspeed…..
